How to > View the Report Results > Export a report to another program

It is possible to export a report to another spreadsheet or database program. This must be set up just once in Step 5 of the Report Wizard. If, when a report is displayed, the arrow on the toolbar is yellow , click it to export the report to a designated spreadsheet or database program. If the arrow on the toolbar is gray , complete the following steps.

Steps

1.	Open the Report Catalog by clicking the icon on the toolbar.

2.	Right-click on any report.

3.	Select "Edit" from the pop-up menu, and Step 1 of the Report Wizard will appear.

4.	Click <GoTo>, and select "5 Sorting & Breaks" from the pop-up menu.

5. Step 5 of the Report Wizard will appear.

6. In the View results with box, select the GOLDWriter radio button, then click the browse button, .

The Open dialog will appear.

7.	Browse to the folder that contains the application you want to view the report in, and double-click on it.
